About Robert

Robert Frost is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) based in Minnesota. He brings ten years of counseling experience and decades working with people who face both mental health and substance use challenges. He aims for a compassionate, down-to-earth approach that helps people take practical steps forward.

He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new behaviors. He also uses Client-Centered and Dialectical Behavior Therapy ideas, plus mindfulness practices, to help people manage strong emotions and rebuild everyday routines. Sessions mix listening, simple exercises, and collaborative problem solving.

Robert has worked in residential, home-based, and intensive outpatient settings. That background shaped his work with people dealing with trauma, addiction, anxiety, depression, and impulsivity. He also supports concerns such as codependency, grief, parenting stress, and career transitions.

His style is warm and often uses humor where it fits. He aims to make therapy feel approachable and realistic, focusing on small changes that add up. People can expect a respectful, paced process tailored to their needs.

To begin, clients follow the site’s Start Therapy flow and complete a short matching questionnaire. Scheduling is then arranged based on the therapist’s availability.

How key approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasizes identifying values and taking small committed steps toward them. It helps when worry or avoidance keeps someone from living in line with what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying practical experiments to change behaviors and mood. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing daily routines.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which methods fit best based on their goals and preferences. That collaborative process may adjust over time as needs change.

Please confirm current session options before booking so you know which online formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also help people use mindfulness exercises and behavioral experiments in the same environments where challenges happen, making practice more practical and relevant.
